Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

he's kind of a punk, yeah, but it is super obvious that he is going to shape up soon. Especially since he just got adopted by a big warm fuzzy foster family and the first thing he did was be a jerk to them and realize that he was, in fact, being a jerk.

the whole point of Captain Marvel is that he's not jaded and angry and super-serious

if that aspect of the character isn't there, it's not really Shazam

Well, he still hasn't actually become Shazam yet

and the fact that they are telegraphing him going through a redemption arc crazy hard

means that we probably aren't going to get jaded angry Shazam

just because Billy isn't AW SHUCKS GEE WILIKERS from the get go(considering we have had 16 pages of story total) doesn't mean they have totally gone against the concept of the character

I just really don't trust Geoff Johns to write well at all.

His writing on JL has been just awful.

Personally I think the first arc is competent when read as a whole

it was very trade written so it suffered in single issues. Still wasn't fantastic, but not a terrible comic.

Then the two one-offs since they jumped to the present have been pretty awesome, especially the one with Green Arrow.

Really, Johns has been at the top of his game since the reboot. Green Lantern has been quality and managed to freshen up his stagnant story and expose Hal for the jerk he is and Aquaman has been one of the best books of the relaunch. He said before the whole thing started that he had grown aware that he was using gore and shock deaths as a crutch and sought to replace them with stronger characters and humor, and he succeeded as far as I am concerned.

The FCBD issue is the first thing he's written post-New 52 that I thought was complete shit
